SHADOW OF A DOUBT was on TCM today, caught a few minutes of it. Another film that hovers near the top of my list, but failed to make it 'cause I get hasty. Directed by ALFRED HITCHCOCK, and starring TERESA WRIGHT (who's in another of my faves that did make my list... ) If you've not seen SHADOW OF A DOUBT, it's one not to miss!!

Just saw a large portion including the ending of PORTRAIT OF JENNIE (1948) on TCM yesterday. It's a very sureal film that had my head spinning. Phew...........Very interesting film. Starring Jenifer Jones.

I like that film; I generally like JOSEPH COTTON in anything (he also starred in the film I last mentioned, SHADOW OF A DOUBT)

PORTRAIT OF JENNIE trivia: The odd little song Jennie sings was written for the the film by Bernard Herrmann. He got a "Special Thanks" credit at the end.

Shawshank RedemptionLord of the Rings (all of them - does that count as one or three)Spiderman ( 1, 2 & 3 - again does that count as one or three)The GodfatherPulp FictionThe Dark Knight - a new beginningThe Green MileKing of New YorkStar Wars ( all of them )Young Frankenstein

As you can see, I'm not really big on "good movies", or at least not "great" ones. The best I think are the "respected" ones fallen out of critical view. Feel free to ask about my weird choices, I had blurbs for them but seeing as most other people didn't outright explain I shouldn't draw attention to myself

Some good choices, I particularly like WHITE HEAT and TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE... AMADEUS is wonderful and MARATHON MAN still holds up.

Walking Tall (The original. "When's the last time you stood up in a movie theater and cheered?") War of the Worlds (original) Earth vs. the Flying Saucers The Magnificent Seven It Came From Outer Space It's a Wonderful Life (sappy but great stuff, guardian angel always got to me :) Slapshot Back to the Future (mostly first one, but they're all good) Close Encounters of the Third Kind Thunder Road (great drive-in classic!)
